Well, i think this falls under communication....

There's this couple i know. i knew the male for about 2 years, werent really close, he had the hots for me. We stopped talking and at the beginning of the year he called me to tell me he had a new GF. We all had coffee, played pool, you know. she seems nice.

so im moving into a nice large apartment this weekend. Two weeks ago they approach me and tell me that they need a place to go for a week because they are waiting to get approved for their new apartment and they have no where to go until then. so they ask me if they can stay at my place.

i said sure but i want 110$ for the week. they say no problem. a week passes, and i call them up to make sure they are renting the room for a week because im relying on the money, if they werent renting it i was going to rent it out anyways.

Conversation as follows: Me-"hey guys, i was calling to confirm you are still renting the room for the week", 'yes but we are going to be staying for a month not a week'.....no question, they told ME!!!

My bounderies are poor, and i figured ok, 110$ a week for 4 weeks would be better...

So last week we are playing pool, and they were fighting who was going to pay their share of the bill, jokingly i said "hey i dont care who pays the bill, as long as i get my rent"....they replied 'we needed to talk to you about that by the way'....oh great, now what??

they TOLD me they can only pay me 50$ a week, not 110$....

so let me get this straight, i have to pay basically ALL the rent for ONE person, while TWO people live there for free? These people are suppost to be my friends...what do i do? i dont want them to stay there in the first place but because i know what its like to not have anywhere to go i was nice and agreed to a week, they changed it to a month... and then they expect me to support them?\

so the guy comes to me and says, dont worry bec, i will pay the 60$ difference, just dont tell her.

why not??? why cant his GF know?? and on top of it, they both hate my boyfriend, who is frequently over...

WHAT DO I DOOOOOO????

Hi short_n_swt

I'm just thinking out loud here, but maybe the guy is somehow being controlled by the woman? That could explain why he's trying to give you money behind her back, because maybe she feels that you shouldn't get the $110 a week?

And about your boyfriend, if they don't like him, tough luck to them.

You were there first, and they don't have to be there if they don't want.

Hope things work out for you soon!
